Pei You was completely stupefied when he heard that He asked in disbelief, “Her feelings for Chen Zhou were so strong; don’t tell hed and replied, “It’s precisely because her acting was so good; otherwise, ouldn’t have been fooled so easily”
If Pink had re more of it But she just happened to have left just then That definitely pointed at a guilty conscience!
Pei You was still unconvinced He replied, “But Cloudcenter Duke has already returned safely Can’t we just ask hi we need to know?”
When it cae from the Duke Manor to Jasper Lane, wouldn’t the duke know best?
Zu An’s expression stiffened He replied, “The duke is currently nursing his injuries and won’t ht not even tell us the truth if we ask hiht noould I ask myself?
…
As they chatted, they quickly arrived at Jasper Lane Zu An sought out the brothel’s ht that the two had arrived to play at first, so she was a bit aloof But Zu An didn’t waste any time and showed her his status as an Ied and she replied, “Sirs, I was just going to say that there was soirl’s business wasn’t even that great; how could she have enough money to ransom herself?”
“When did she couidance, the two of theh the things reed

“Hmph, she probably bribed you to let her in” Pei You was a veteran of the place He knew a place like the brothel norirl frohed aardly and said, “That girl Pink kne things worked around these parts, so how could we refuse her?”
“Two years ago…” Zu An began to think to himself The incident with Jian Yanyou had happened more than a year prior It sees He continued, asking, “Which co commandery you mentioned?”
“Yi Commandery, of course,” the madam replied
“Yi Commandery?” Zu An stopped cold Even Pei You realized that so with Yi Commandery?” the ” Zu An didn’t want her to know too h the room and noticed that many clothes had been left behind He frowned and asked, “Pink didn’t bring all of these clothes with her?”
The madam replied, “That’s completely normal In our line of trade, those ant to leave often don’t wish to be burdened by their past and won’t bring these clothes back with the clothing in public?”
“Did Pink return to her hometown? Where is that hometown?” Pei You asked He was quite pissed now that he found out that the girl he cared so much about had actually fooled him
“I think she’s from Yi Commandery’s Qianshui City,” the ain?” Pei You frowned
That wasn’t what Zu An was paying attention to, however Even if it were a norht not even reveal their true hometown, let alone soave theus tohim over, but he orried that news of their arrival would leak out, so he decided to head over personally

Soon afterward, a man who seemed like a landlord welcomed them Zu An observed the man; he seemed to just be an ordinary merchant ouldn’t have any inforht of so and asked, “Has the duke ever had anyone he was close to in Jasper Lane?”
The boss replied with an apologetic s! The duke’s concubines are all stunning beauties, and he even has a Goddess like Madam Yu as his wife Why would he possibly favor a ht, You have no idea that this nu about wasn’t someone the duke could even touch He only worshi+ped her one-sidedly, so Jian Yanyou still has a motive
But he couldn't just tell the man that for various reasons, so he could only say to Pei You, “Once we get back, look into Jasper Lane’s background There’s no way a business this big wouldn’t have any kind of background Check and see who the one behind theate Pink’s whereabouts Look into the hometown she h there wasn’t too much hope, he still didn’t want to abandon any possibility
